FREE SPIRITS
Our children are free spirits who come to dwell
In our house for a while, in our house for a spell
We share our lives for such a short while,
Before they’re off to live it their style
Let those short years be ‘quality plus’
The dividends reaped will be love and trust,
For parenting is indeed a serious endeavor,
Which takes much more than being a little clever,
It is sacrifice and devotion, giving and taking,
Then letting go, of all that in the making,
And let go we must or they will never know
That challenges and trials are the seeds that grow
Our children are free spirits who come only to dwell
In our house for a while, in our house for a spell.
